The Agilent/Keysight E4854A is a dual serial cell generator module that emulates burst-mode data for network transmission performance characterization. Deployed as a single-slot VXI component within the E4859A Serial Cell Generator and Analyzer System, it enables detailed analysis of transmission behavior under real network conditions, including proprietary cell formats.
This C-Size VXI module provides independent control over cell length, cell content, and cell timing for each of its two generators. Engineers can configure these parameters to simulate diverse network scenarios and validate system performance against varied data patterns and timing constraints.
